We need to talk about Miss Sixty

TAAT, do hope not deleted Wink

I was 21 in 2001 and Miss Sixty was the dream. I could hardly ever afford it but would save up and scour the sales for the most ludicrously low-slung jeans. I also had a fake sheepskin coat of the kind that seems to be making a current comeback. Loved it and lived in it. Also a t-shirt that for some reason said 'apples apples apples' across the boobs. Loved that too.

Who else worshipped at the alter of Miss Sixty in the early Noughties?

I had a scandalously tiny Miss Sixty denim miniskirt which I loved, and I looked bloody fantastic in it. Oh to be in my early 20’s again!

TheVolturi · 16/01/2022 20:38

Same as you op, I used to scour for bargains, and my prized item was a really tiny denim skirt and I wore it with pride. I had some jeans as well, skinny flares, that I used to wear with crop tops . Those were the days!

purpleme12 · 16/01/2022 20:42

Oh my god yes!
I probably only had one or two clothes from there to be honest but this brings me back!

HeadToToesNo · 16/01/2022 20:43

I've still got my full length denim and faux-fur coat, I begged and begged and begged my parents for it and they finally relented. I lived in it for years but it's still in surprisingly good condition, I just need to work up the nerve to wear it in public again!

Lifeisnteasy · 16/01/2022 20:44

Yessss! Didn’t they do make up as well? Shimmery eye shadow and the like?

ENoeuf · 16/01/2022 20:44

Loved miss sixty so much. Also Diesel. Lived in a lot of their clothes when you get and thinner

Lifeisnteasy · 16/01/2022 20:45

It’s odd but just recently I’ve been feeling really nostalgic for the 2000s, for the first time ever!

Anyone else remember the t-shirts with the little wings on the back and ‘no Angel’ on the front? Grin

Happy days! I was 20 something in early 2000s, was a size 10 and had a pair of Miss Sixty low slung jeans. I wore them with a teeny broderie anglais top that showed my midriff and a "brooch" Carrie Bradshaw style that was a red rose flowery hair clip from a brand at the time I can't remember.. Frankie and Rosie or something like that...

It's all Peacocks and Asda George now and I tend to opt for medium men's for everything for comfort Grin

furbabymama87 · 16/01/2022 20:45

I had Miss Sixty glasses.

NotMyDayJob · 16/01/2022 20:46

I had a fabulous pair of miss sixty wideleg jeans in the early 00s. Wore them to death and couldn't get a replacement when they finally died. Happy days!

Roominmyhouse · 16/01/2022 20:47

I couldn’t fit in their clothes really but I had the best pair of pointy denim miss sixty boots with little pockets on the side. They were amazing! They were like these but mine had a sort of bleach spot pattern.

Me, I loved it, had several pairs of hipster skinny flares, multi coloured and made of different fabrics plus a t shirt with a sparkly miss 60 logo across the boobs. The 24" waist jeans I've kept will only get to mid thigh now... They were VERY low rise. Definitely needed a wax to wear them! 🤣

GinF1zz · 16/01/2022 20:48

I loved those jeans! I lived in Spain at the time and there were cheap lookalikes everywhere which I also bought. Lots had darker squares of fabric where the back pockets should have been.

MsAnnFrope · 16/01/2022 20:50

Oh wow I’d forgotten about this brand! I wore their hipster boot cuts with my FCUK T-shirt and though I was the bomb

Glowtastic · 16/01/2022 20:50

I wore them with a one shoulder t shirt with some kind of glittery logo on and Adidas gazelles!

wolfstarling · 16/01/2022 20:51

I'm a few years younger but Gas and Diesel were my favourites. I had a some beautiful brown velvet hipsters worn with high block sandals. I looked pretty cool. Grin

I had one of those tops omg I had totally forgotten about that!! I loved it!
MsAnnFrope · 16/01/2022 20:52

And now I want some new Adidas campus

imjustanerd · 16/01/2022 20:54

I'm the same age as you and yes I absolutely loved Miss Sixty.
I had a lovely red jumper and a denim bag that I took everywhere (I still have it I can't bring myself to get rid of it).

Remember Paul Frank? What happened to them? I always wanted the T-shirts but never had one.

megletthesecond · 16/01/2022 20:54

I loved my low slung cargo jeans. Didn't need a bag in the evenings.

I had so many FCUK T-shirts, I thought I was cool as fuck.
MelonTits · 16/01/2022 20:56

Oh, the jeans. So big my trainers disappeared 😂

HighlandCowbag · 16/01/2022 20:57

I still had a pair of Miss Sixty jeans until a couple of years ago, from around 2000ish. Teeny tiny size 10s. I also had a miss sixty denim bag in the shape of a pair of jeans with a button fly, and when you opened the buttons was a hot pink pair of knickers underneath. My little niece still has it and uses it for parties and stuff. And had a little skirt, a few tshirts and another pair of jeans.

I do still have a pair of firetrap blackseal i think it is? jeans upstairs. I'll never ever fit back into them. But can't face throwing them away.

QueenLagertha · 16/01/2022 20:57

I had Miss sixty black leather trousers. I was obsessed with them Grin

RegeJeanPageMeOnMyCellphone · 16/01/2022 20:57

Loved Miss Sixty and Bay Trading.

My college uniform was Miss Sixty low rise jeans and a Bubblegum character T-shirt!
